Rotor Shaft

Minimum use of materials – maximum efficiency
The rotor shaft is an integral part of the drive train and is connected directly to the rotor. It is used to transmit rotary movements and torques and to support rotating parts.

Economical lightweight solution for modern automobile manufacturing
Saving weight in automobile manufacturing is now the established development goal for minimising consumption and maximising range. Radical lightweight construction at the heart of the drive marks a step change in development for the resource-saving and emission-free mobility solutions of the future. This lightweight construction solution from Felss ensures weight savings of 50% compared to solidly manufactured shafts – and it is all down to the way different cold forming processes interact intelligently to achieve a high level of functional integration. The Felss rotor shaft is synonymous with economical and resource-efficient component manufacturing.
